          Isn't there something in cat poop that is harmful to a pregnant woman?

            Not harmful to the mother, but to the baby. There is a protozoan parasite that can spread via the placenta and cause congenital toxoplasmosis in the fetus.

              Home Depot has some products that are safe to cats that keep them off of the lawn and making doo doo. Try the garden section. Hope it helps.

                Correct. The product in question is called a HOSE.
                See a cat in your yard? Spray it with the hose! They got soaked two or three times and they won't come back for a loooooong time.
                Just that easy.
                .
                .

                That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

                    That's easy: don't eat chili before you go to bed.
                    Oh.
                    Wait.
                    You mean, the cat's.
                    Same Home Depot, same garden section... sprinklers! And a timer (or a sensitive motion sensor) to turn 'em on and off at random times during the night.

                      Hahaha!

                      I have birds eating my tomatoes, and every day I come home from school to find 4-8 doves lounging in the garden. Tomorrow, I'm getting them with the hose!! Thanks LikaNui!

                        The waiting list for a cat trap is several months long. When you finally get one and catch the cat, the Humane Society will check it for identification and return it to its owner. Unless the cat was a stray, your problem will be back in no time. You'd have to be put back on the waiting list, and you'd be lucky if the cat fell for the trap again.

                          Go to the electrical department buy a motion detector floodlight, screw in one of those bulb to outlet converters, plug in a device that turns on with electricity and whenever the motion detector detects motion, the one flood light will come on and whatever electrically operated device that is plugged in will turn on and do what it was designed to do...to the cat.

                            Aaah, Lika, da buggahz run away as soon as they hear me coming. Most of the cats around here are feral and they'lll run away at the first sign of trouble.

                            I have ONE cat that occasionally poops at the edge of my garage, just behind the guava tree. I shoot it down with anykind of spray cleanser I have handy and it hasn't been back. I'd use a powder laundry detergent, but we use a liquid. Btw, at one time, powdered laundry detergent was recommended and it does work. Just gotta watch out when it rains. Kinda slip n slide in the backyard.

                            Didja try clear glass gallon bottles and fill it with water and place them at the corners of your yard? Seems many who use it swears it keeps animals out of their yards.

                            Get a dog. Cats usually steer clear of yards reeking of dog, or maybe "borrow" a few doody piles from a neighbor that does have dogs. LOL

                              I was just about to mention this. I have no idea if it works, but when I was a kid, those glass jars were a constant presence in the neighborhood.
